Toasted Coconut, Pecan. Chocolate, and Caramel Pie image

This was kind of a creation that happened when I found one yummy pie recipe and accidentally poked a hole in the crust. Some of my best creations are accidents! This makes two pies and freezes really well!

Provided by Brandi Kirkpatrick

Categories     Chocolate

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (9 inch) pie crusts, baked
1 (8oz) package flaked coconut
1 cup pecans, chopped
1 (8oz) package of cream cheese
1 (14oz) can of sweetened condensed milk
1 (12oz) container of frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (12oz) jar caramel ice cream topping
GANACHE COATING
9 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • 1. Broil coconut and chopped pecans on a baking sheet until lightly toasted and browned. Remove from oven and cool.
  • 2. Place the chocolate into a medium bowl. Heat the cream in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil, watching very carefully because if it boils for a few seconds, it will boil out of the pot. When the cream has come to a boil, pour over the chopped chocolate, and whisk until smooth.
  • 3. Allow the ganache to cool slightly before pouring into pie crust. Start at the center of the crust and work outward.
  • 4. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add condensed milk and mix until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Spread 1/4 of cream cheese mixture into each pastry shell. Sprinkle 1/4 of coconut mixture over each pie. Drizzle 1/2 of caramel topping over each coconut layer. Follow with remaining cream cheese mixture, then remaining coconut mixture.
  • 5. Pies may be served chilled or frozen.

COCONUT PECAN CHOCOLATE PIE

A wonderful dessert, with the winning combination of coconut, pecans and chocolate. Yum!Source: Unknown

Provided by Lynnda Cloutier

Categories     Pies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 box refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box
1 cup coconut
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter or margarine
4 oz sweet baking chocolate, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup evaporated milk or half-and-half
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 eggs
topping, if desired whipped cream

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 350°F. Place pie crust in 9-inch glass pie plate as directed on box for One-Crust Filled Pie. Sprinkle coconut and pecans in bottom of crust-lined pie plate.
  • 2. In 2-quart saucepan, heat sugar, butter and chocolate over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. Pour chocolate mixture into medium bowl; cool 5 minutes. Beat in flour with wire whisk until well combined. Beat in evaporated milk, vanilla and eggs with wire whisk until well blended.
  • 3. Slowly pour chocolate mixture over coconut and pecans in pie plate. Cover crust edge with 2- to 3-inch-wide strips of foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil during last 15 minutes of bake time.
  • 4. Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until center is set. Cool on cooling rack at least 1 hour 30 minutes before serving. Top individual servings with whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate any remaining pie. Try placing chocolate curls or toasted shaved coconut on top of the whipped cream, or sprinkle cocoa or toasted coconut over the serving plate.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor to finely chop the pecans. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the pie and prevent them from clumping together.
  • Be sure to toast the pecans before adding them to the pie. This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Don't overbeat the egg yolks. Overbeating can make them tough and rubbery.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pie. The filling should be set, but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the filling to firm up.

Conclusion:

This coconut pecan chocolate pie is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy chocolate filling, flaky crust, and toasted pecans, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this coconut pecan chocolate pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
